Skyryse, the creator of SkyOS, the world's first universal operating system for flight, today announced receipt of a Special Airworthiness Certificate for its first Skyryse One aircraft.

Skyryse has been developing and flight testing its SkyOS system in pre-production aircraft since 2016. This certificate, issued by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), unlocks the next step of work with the FAA to obtain approval and certification of the Skyryse One aircraft.

"Today's milestone represents another important step in our mission of making flight simpler and safer for everyone," said Mark Groden, CEO of Skyryse. "We appreciate the continued cooperation and partnership with the FAA as we work toward our shared goal of eliminating fatalities in aviation."
